Default Brake pad question

Are the '10 brake pads the same as the '09?
I want to go to Akebono ProAct Ceramics to cut down on the brake dust.
The '07-'09 pads are the same so I'm assuming the '10's are the same but want to make sure.

I called my Lexus dealer parts dept.
I was told the '10s have a revised pad because of brake pad noise complaints.
The pad is softer and causes more dust.
I was also told the '10 pad size is the same as the '07-'09.
I'm probably going to go with a set of Akebono ProAct Ceramics all around to cut down on about 80% of the annoying brake dust.I have used ceramic pads before and never had a problem.
